Have been using it for some time now (2 weeks straight) and I can say it's smooth and worth a big try. For all of you moaners this is your solution.

Very interesting, will have to give this a spin on my test machine when I get home. I personally actually do like/use the Metro stuff never mind developing for it, but may have to recommend this to a couple friends who aren't of the same mindset, especially as (if I'm reading the site right) it's non-destructive and an easy-toggle.

Yes. Everything you'll need are just explorer.exe, and the current language folder from Windows 7. It's on the readme file.

Got around to trying it, been toying with it for a couple hours on a mirror of my main system.. so far it's actually quite good if this is the effect you're after. Haven't had any issues yet, after this and a couple of other tweaks it pretty much feels like a "Windows 7.5" now. Definitely going to make the Metro haters happy. Now just need to find a nicer theme...

Indeed.

About the theme, I'm still looking for a news post on how to enable Aero Transparency (from the China Post)

I don't know if people remember 98lite and possibly XPlite but using windows update on either generally made the system unbootable and/or refuse to update, please take note if you are going to use this.
